Product Care

Caring for your tapware is important to maintain its appearance and function over time. Below is our guide to proper care and maintenance.

General Care Instructions

To maintain the beauty and performance of your tapware, please ensure you follow these simple care guidelines:

Regular Cleaning

  • Wipe the tapware with a soft cloth: Use a microfiber or soft cotton cloth to wipe down tapware after use to remove water spots and soap residue.
  • Dry after use: After cleaning, dry immediately with a clean microfiber or cotton cloth to reduce water stains, watermarks and limescale build-up.

Use Mild Cleaning Products

  • Use only mild, pH-neutral soap diluted in warm water.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners, bleach, ammonia, or vinegar-based products, as they may damage the finish or cause discoloration over time.

Avoid Abrasive and Harsh Scrubbing Tools

  • Do not use steel wool, scouring pads, or rough sponges.
  • These can scratch the surface and accelerate tarnishing..

Protect Against Harsh Environments

  • Avoid prolonged contact with toothpaste, hair dye, shaving cream, or chemical cleaners, which can corrode the surface.
  • Rinse the tapware immediately if exposed to such substances.
